Re: Unlawful acts

If I were the prosecutor, I'd probably charge it something like this:

1) Attempted Forgery for trying to falsify invoices.

2) Theft, for stealing the computer technology.

3) Burglary, for breaking into the call center and stealing the computer technology.

4) Conspiracy to commit all of the above (for planning together to do it all).

5) (This is a stretch, but not out of the realm of possibility.) Racketeering or Scheming to Defraud.
